While this version retains elements from the earlier games, Tekken 6 introduces a new Rage system that increases the strength of the player characters when their health gets low. The game was produced by Katsuhiro Harada, who aimed to give the fights a strategic style while remaining faithful to the previous games in the series. It was ported for the PlayStation Portable on November 24, 2009. This was the first time a main installment was produced for another console. A home version based on the update was released for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 on October 27, 2009.

Both versions also saw a limited release in North America. A year later, the game received an update, subtitled Bloodline Rebellion.

It was released in arcades on November 26, 2007, as the first game running on the PlayStation 3-based System 357 arcade board. It is the sixth main and seventh overall installment in the Tekken franchise. Tekken 6 ( Japanese: 鉄拳6) is a fighting game developed and published by Bandai Namco Games.
